It didn't knock him off his feet. He was in the bath, and it spilt his 
gin and tonic. And I tried to insert "Opportunity" between his boat and 
the one tied outside him, so yes, it was quite an impact (for those who 
don't know it, "Opportunity" has a long tug deck, which I had forgotten 
about.)

I don't know, you make one mistake in 30 years boating...
